Our Benefits

There are a lot of great reasons to work at Walmart. The life-changing benefits are at or near the top of the list.

It starts with the basics: full-time and eligible part-time associates will have access to medical coverage starting at $38.30 per biweekly pay period in 2026 – about 1/3 less than the average premium at other national companies.  But there’s so much more – benefits and programs for associates’ mind, body and wallet.

We’re building on our already strong offerings by adding new ones based on healthcare trends and feedback we’ve received from associates. Here are some of our favorites – old and new:

1. Expanding support for diabetes and weight loss: Expanding our Type 2 diabetes benefit, powered by Twin Health, to include associates who are pre-diabetic or have a BMI over 40.
   
   
2. Adding a neurodiversity benefit: All associates and eligible family members get access to one-on-one support for needs like ADHD and autism through Lyra, and those enrolled in most medical plans will have access to neuropsychological assessments within four weeks.
   
   
3. Expanding bereavement paid time off: Increasing the amount of paid time off for the loss of pregnancy, child, spouse or partner, which may also be combined with other paid time off and leave options.
   
   
4. Piloting an AI-supported medical plan: Eligible associates in eight states will have an additional plan option that includes an AI-powered virtual well-being agent.
